Click handler not getting invoked after html write

I've this code:
document.getElementById('form1').innerHTML = user_selections.stockyard_html[sel];
alert('click handler registered');
$("#" + register_btn_id).click(function (event){
alert("Clicked");
});
After html overwrite of form html which was saved yesterday, there is a register button whose click I'm not able to catch. What could be the reason?

Put it inside document ready:
$(function() {
$("#" + register_btn_id).on('click', function(e) {
alert('clicked')
)}
})

Trigger AJAX inside an AJAX loaded page [duplicate]

I have a link, myLink, that should insert AJAX-loaded content into a div (appendedContainer) of my HTML page. The problem is that the click event I have bound with jQuery is not being executed on the newly loaded content which is inserted into the appendedContainer. The click event is bound on DOM elements that are not loaded with my AJAX function.
What do I have to change, such that the event will be bound?
My HTML:
<a class="LoadFromAjax" href="someurl">Load Ajax</a>
<div class="appendedContainer"></div>
My JavaScript:
$(".LoadFromAjax").on("click", function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
var url = $(this).attr("href"),
appendedContainer = $(".appendedContainer");
$.ajax({
url: url,
type : 'get',
complete : function( qXHR, textStatus ) {
if (textStatus === 'success') {
var data = qXHR.responseText
appendedContainer.hide();
appendedContainer.append(data);
appendedContainer.fadeIn();
}
}
});
});
$(".mylink").on("click", function(event) { alert("new link clicked!");});
The content to be loaded:
<div>some content</div>
<a class="mylink" href="otherurl">Link</a>

Use event delegation for dynamically created elements:
$(document).on("click", '.mylink', function(event) {
alert("new link clicked!");
});
This does actually work, here's an example where I appended an anchor with the class .mylink instead of data - http://jsfiddle.net/EFjzG/

If the content is appended after .on() is called, you'll need to create a delegated event on a parent element of the loaded content. This is because event handlers are bound when .on() is called (i.e. usually on page load). If the element doesn't exist when .on() is called, the event will not be bound to it!
Because events propagate up through the DOM, we can solve this by creating a delegated event on a parent element (.parent-element in the example below) that we know exists when the page loads. Here's how:
$('.parent-element').on('click', '.mylink', function(){
alert ("new link clicked!");
})

if your question is "how to bind events on ajax loaded content" you can do like this :
$("img.lazy").lazyload({
effect : "fadeIn",
event: "scrollstop",
skip_invisible : true
}).removeClass('lazy');
// lazy load to DOMNodeInserted event
$(document).bind('DOMNodeInserted', function(e) {
$("img.lazy").lazyload({
effect : "fadeIn",
event: "scrollstop",
skip_invisible : true
}).removeClass('lazy');
});
so you don't need to place your configuration to every you ajax code

As of jQuery 1.7, the .live() method is deprecated. Use .on() to attach event handlers.
Example -
$( document ).on( events, selector, data, handler );

For those who are still looking for a solution , the best way of doing it is to bind the event on the document itself and not to bind with the event "on ready"
For e.g :
$(function ajaxform_reload() {
$(document).on("submit", ".ajax_forms", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var url = $(this).attr('action');
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: url,
data: $(this).serialize(),
success: function (data) {
// DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH THE RESPONSE
}
});
});
});

If your ajax response are containing html form inputs for instance, than this would be great:
$(document).on("change", 'input[type=radio][name=fieldLoadedFromAjax]', function(event) {
if (this.value == 'Yes') {
// do something here
} else if (this.value == 'No') {
// do something else here.
} else {
console.log('The new input field from an ajax response has this value: '+ this.value);
}
});

use jQuery.live() instead . Documentation here
e.g
$("mylink").live("click", function(event) { alert("new link clicked!");});

For ASP.NET try this:
<script type="text/javascript">
Sys.Application.add_load(function() { ... });
</script>
This appears to work on page load and on update panel load

Important step for Event binding on Ajax loading content...
01. First of all unbind or off the event on selector
$(".SELECTOR").off();
02. Add event listener on document level
$(document).on("EVENT", '.SELECTOR', function(event) {
console.log("Selector event occurred");
});

Here is my preferred method:
// bind button click to function after button is AJAX loaded
$('#my_button_id').bind('click', function() {
my_function(this);
});
function my_function () {
// do stuff here on click
}
I place this code right after the AJAX call is complete.

I would add one point that was NOT obvious to me as a JS newb - typically your events would be wired within document, e.g.:
$(function() {
$("#entcont_table tr td").click(function (event) {
var pk = $(this).closest("tr").children("td").first().text();
update_contracts_details(pk);
});
}
With event delegation however you'd want:
$(function() {
// other events
}
$("#entcont_table").on("click","tr td", function (event) {
var pk = $(this).closest("tr").children("td").first().text();
update_contracts_details(pk);
});
If your event delegation is done within the document ready, you'll an error of the like:

JS click in a Jquery function on load

I have a JS function that I want to automatic click in a jquery.click link when page loads.
How can I make it work?
Fiddle
When page loads I want to see the alert, no click in the link needed.
js:
window.onload = function(){
document.getElementsByClassName("c").click();
}
$(".c").click(function(){
alert("ok");
});
html:
test

you need to attach click event before trigger event.
DEMO
Change
document.getElementsByClassName("c")
to
document.getElementsByClassName("c")[0]
Use Below code
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".c").click(function(){
alert("ok");
});
});
window.onload = function(){
document.getElementsByClassName("c")[0].click();
// Or use jQuery trigger
// $(".c").trigger('click')
}

DEMO HERE
trigger click on document.ready
$('document').ready(function(){
$(".c").click(function(){
alert("ok");
});
$('.c').trigger('click');
});

Trigger event right after you create handler
$(function(){
$(".c").click(function(){
alert("ok");
}).click();
});
DEMO

Try this way
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".c").trigger('click');
});

getElementsByClassName Returns an array-like object of all child elements which have all of the given class names. When called on the document object, the complete document is searched, including the root node.
To assign a click handler, either you will have to iterate through nodelist or just assign event to first element
Try this:
window.onload = function () {
document.getElementsByClassName("c")[0].click();
};
$(".c").click(function () {
alert("ok");
});

So you can push your alert into a function :
function callAlert() {
alert('a');
}
And you can change the event click like this :
$(".c").click(callAlert);
Finally you can call the alert function when page loads like this :
$('document').ready(function(){
callAlert(); // call here
});
Code :
$('document').ready(function(){
callAlert();
$(".c").click(callAlert);
});
function callAlert() {
alert('a');
}

onclick function for input checkbox - check on page load and also on click

I have this code:
$('input.ShowResellerAccounts').on('click', function(){
if($(this).is(':checked')){
$('tbody#pages').hide();
} else {
$('tbody#pages').show();
}
});
which hides/shows a table tbody id on click.
how can i make this code run on page load as well as on click?

In the document.ready function you can trigger the click event like
$('input.ShowResellerAccounts').trigger('click');

Separate it into a function and bind in on load as well as on click:
function checkInput(){
if($(this).is(':checked')){
$('tbody#pages').hide();
} else {
$('tbody#pages').show();
}
});
$(document).ready(function() {
$('input.ShowResellerAccounts')
.on('click', checkInput) // bind to click
.each(checkInput); // call now
});

u can use $(document).ready :
$(document).ready(function(){
//put your code here
});
